Maybe this is the problem? sol.exe will need one, probably more,
Windows DLLs (the card bitmaps are in WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CARDS.DLL for
instance) so without a native Windows setup you could be on a hiding
to nothing. Have you changed the DllDefaults & DllOverrides sections
in /usr/local/etc/wine.conf to use builtin dlls for everything?
Does ``wine -debug'' give any clues?
